DMan14:
even the hitter thinking, "you sure i'm safe?"
Definitely. You could see in his face that he was like 'Nah, dog... I'm out. He got me. I... I was out, bro.'

i dont even +%#@ with baseball like that but that @*%! aint cool. the MLB should be able to overturn the decision and make it officially a perfect game. even though we all know he threw a legit perfect game, its unfortunately not the same for galarraga and sports fans to be able to recognize it without the MLB saying it was.

If you're down by 5+ runs I could see an argument for that, but 3 runs or fewer? Nah, you play hard until the end.Originally Posted by aaronpayumo

Biggest blown call I have ever seen in my years of watching sports.
Galarraga is such a calm kid, that's unbelieveable. Him hoping that it could happen again is ridiculous though, don't think anyone has ever pitched 2 perfect games but not totally sure.
My heart goes out to him, and Jim Joyce is gonna get ripped for this for a looooooooong time.
Here comes video replay in baseball for any iffy call. Sucks it had to come about in this manner, but usually something this monumentally bad has to happen in order to change a rule.

Lost in all of this is the fact that Joyce blew a call that led to the Tigers' two late runs the inning before.
I hope that wasn't his makeup call...

That was literally one of the worst calls I've ever seen. He was out by almost a whole step.
I don't see why they couldn't just amend the box score since the video shows that he pitched a perfect game.

Wow ...

Stupid question:
But there is NO way MLB reviews it and says "Damn, we really blew this" and reward him with what he deserves? This isn't a regular game, this is history.

The smugness aura that baseball umpires bring about is second to none in professional sports tho, without question.
